The C-SM-NIM-ADPT is a dual-NIM carrier card in an SM-X form factor for Catalyst 8300 Series platforms. This module supports a wide variety of NIMs, including the C-NIM Layer 3 WAN modules for the Catalyst 8000 platforms. See Table 6 for a list of supported modules. Since it connects to the backplane with two 10-Gbps links, this carrier card will not impose any bottleneck on traffic, even if two 10-Gbps C-NIM-1X modules are installed. It supports full online insertion and removal. There is no upper limit on the number of C-SM-NIM-ADPT cards that can be installed in a Catalyst 8300 Series platform, other than available SM-X slots.. The Cisco Catalyst 8000 Gigabit Ethernet WAN Modules are based on the technology of the onboard Gigabit Ethernet and SFP/SFP+ ports of the Cisco Catalyst 8000 Edge Platforms. Feature support will therefore be identical to that of the onboard ports on the Catalyst 8300 and 8200 Series and the 8200L.. Features. Product colour. Metallic. Material. Metal. Internal. Yes.
